{"product_id":"subframe-alignment-collar-kit","title":"Subframe Alignment Collar Kit","description":"The Racingline MQB Subframe Bolt Collar Alignment Kit is a straightforward upgrade for VW Group MQB platform vehicles, targeting the issue of oversized factory subframe bolt holes. These large factory holes allow for flexibility during assembly but can lead to the subframe shifting over time or with each refitting, resulting in vague steering, inconsistent handling, and the need for frequent wheel alignments. This kit contains 16 precision-machined T6061 billet aluminum collars with a gloss black anodised finish.\n\nOnce installed, these collars precisely center and lock the subframe into position, eliminating play and ensuring a more connected and planted feel through corners. The benefits include sharper steering response, more consistent handling under braking and cornering loads, and repeatable alignment every time the subframes are refitted, potentially saving on future geometry costs. Importantly, the kit does not introduce any added noise, vibration, or harshness (NVH) into the cabin.\n\nInstallation is typically achievable within an hour, as the collars simply push into place without requiring modifications to the subframe or chassis. Furthermore, a full professional wheel and geometry alignment is mandatory after installation to ensure the suspension is set correctly.\n\nCompatibility should be confirmed using the vehicle lookup tool or the specific fitment tab provided by the retailer.","brand":"Racingline","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52872831926584,"sku":"VWR150000","price":143.21,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/store.motormia.co\/products\/subframe-alignment-collar-kit","provider":"MOTORMIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
